The corpus is released publicly using several orthographic standards and consists in short stories collected in the {\textquoteleft}70s in Romania. Additionally, we provide an corpus-based analysis of Aromanian linguistic particularities and the overall demographic and political context which impacts the contemporary development of the language."
